Teams that mirror how you actually work
Group people into the teams they really sit in and give each one a lead, or a few. A team's leads approve its leave and open straight to its calendar, so time off is handled close to the work; admins can still approve for anyone.
How it works
in three steps
Build your teams
Create the teams you actually work in and assign each person to one. Managing teams is admin-side, so the structure stays deliberate.
Give each team its leads
Assign one or more team leads. Paired with a software role that can manage others' leave, they approve their team's requests and open the calendar to their own team.
Requests land with the right person
A team's leads can approve its requests, so time off is handled close to the work, and admins can still approve for anyone, from anywhere.

2Structure that mirrors your org
Create teams that match how the company is really organised (Frontend, Sales, HR & admin) and place each person on theirs. Teams are the backbone the calendar groups by and the lead's scope is drawn from.
One or more leads per team
Assign as many leads as a team needs, and time off is handled by the people closest to it. Being named a lead is an assignment: the approval powers come from a software role that can manage others' leave. Together, a lead approves and manages their team's requests and opens the calendar to their own team, without the keys to the whole workspace. Admins can always approve for anyone.
Everyone sees the right slice
A team lead sees their team; an employee sees themselves; an admin sees everyone. What's visible follows the team and the software role (not a pile of manual sharing settings) so nobody sees more than they should.
